Congratulations! Not one sarcastic reply about why you'd want to make your car look like that. They must be slacking.....

Danny don’t bother wasting the money on trying to tune the engine.

Buy a set of Spax suspension (average cost £200-240 full kit) then a good set of brakes to suit an RS.

Then if you still have your car 2 years later when you have some no-claims bonus then stick a bigger engine in it XR2i or a proper RS turbo unit.

Haynes do a Modifying guide or try Daniel Stapletons book How To Plan & Build a Fast road Car.

When I did it
1. I planned what I wanted and prioritised it.
2. Worked out my budget.
3. Took a few years building it.

I didn’t have the money or the no-claims bonus back then.……..Unfortunately!

Danny, I saw a black XR2i in the gym carpark, but with the Cosworth front and rear bumpers, standard arches and skirts, it looked really good, if you struggle to find bits for an RS rep, and have to buy a new kit, this is the one



i go on speedshack all the time its good for used RS bits and some time its Cheap How about them wheels GAZA

I sure do...

I started fitting it last weekend but I can't finish it yet as I'm still waiting for the correct jets to arrive as they supplied me with jets for 300bhp extra!

Should be ready for testing on the rollers in a couple of weeks.

Why not?

Just make sure your wearing your rubber underwear cause my leather is cream and I don't want it changed to chocolate brown.

You have to get it to Bruntingthorpe for a high speed run with Nos!
